What is expected behavior when a user tabs on the select box whic h doesn't contain any option?

I am trying to understand what is expected behavior when a user tabs on a
select box which doesn't contain any option. In IE and Netscape when I tab
on the widget, the empty pop-up menu is displayed. The spect says "A select
element must contain at least one option element..." but it doesn't mention
about this case. I will appreciate if you let me know.

<body>
	<select>
	</select>
</body>
